Re: 600mb tier rollout
 
When I upgraded from 500 to 600 my WiFi speed went from 200 to about 275 on my netgear nighthawk router.
Just got my ASU’s RT-AX88U and am now getting >650 on WiFi.
I’m happy with that ��

It shouldnt make any difference at all. Zero, zilch nadda.

When I was on 500 I consistently got 200, sometimes as high as 203, very rarely anything different.

I upgraded to 600 and consistently got 275 ish.

Maybe it shouldn’t but the speed increase I was showing happened when I upgraded to 600 with no other changes at my end.

Be careful what you wish for…

With my netgear router I got a max of 275, but I live in a town house. My router is in the study on the ground floor, my lounge is on the first floor and bedroom on the second floor.

With the netgear nighthawk I got 275 throughout the house.

With my ultrafast ASU’s I get 655 in the study, 270ish in the lounge and in the bedroom? 150ish if I can get a connection.

I think I’ll have to go back to the nighthawk.
